Abstract: A method of pretreating metallic works comprises beating a metallic work in a furnace and introducing a fluorine- or fluoride-­containing gas into the furnace in thta state to thereby cause destruction and elimination of the foreign matters adhering to the metallic work surface and of the oxidized layer occurring on the metallic work surface and simultaneous formation of a fluorinated layer. Just prior to the main thermal treatment, for example nitriding, the fluorinated layer is decomposed and eliminated by introducing an appropriate gas, for example H₂, into the furnace. In this way, the metallic work reveals its cleaned and activated surface. 
     A steel nitriding method comprises heating a steel work placed in a furnace to a temperature of about 300-500 o C, feeding a fluorine- or fluoride-containing gas into the furnace at that temperature, and then subjecting the steel works to nitriding treatment to thereby remove impurities and at the same time activate a steel work surface, make N atoms penetrate rapidly to the thus-­activated steel work surface and diffuse into the inside. As a result, a uniform nitrided layer can be formed.

Abstract: A flashlight holder clamp assembly having a mounting bracket which contains one or, optionally, two elastomeric substantially spherical gripping members (56, 57) having a centrally disposed cylindrical channel therein for receiving a portion of the barrel of a small flashlight and for receiving a cylindrical support member. The gripping members also define a plurality of uniformly spaced longitudinal slots which communicate along their inner ends with the central channel so as to allow the gripping member to be uniformly constricted by the mounting bracket upon clamping the flashlight holder clamp assembly to a cylindrical member, such as a bicycle handlebar. The end of the flashlight holder clamp assembly which contains the spherical gripping member has two or four apertures (58, 59, 60, 61) formed therein to accommodate the portions of the flashlight barrel projecting outwardly from the spherical gripping member and allowing the flashlight to be directed in any one of four general directions, either perpendicular to a longitudinal direction of the bicycle handlebars or in a direction along the longitudinal direction of the bicycle handlebars. The lower portion of the flashlight holder clamp assembly defines a pair of cooperating gripping surfaces which clamp onto the tubular member as the mounting bracket is tightened about the spherical gripping member by a suitable tightening means (66, 67, 68) or may also have two or four apertures (62, 63, 64, 65) to accommodate the support member and to allow the mounting bracket to be adjusted rotationally about the axis or perpendicularly to the axis of the support member.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un appareil ainsi qu'un procédé de détection de particules lequel comprend une pluralité de région d'échantillon (74, 76, 78, 80). Un corps de détecteur (14) comporte des parois intérieures définissant des régions d'échantillon espacées présentant un orifice d'admission (36) ainsi qu'un orifice d'évacuation (60). Un écoulement global d'échantillons est divisé en écoulements (B) partiels d'échantillons lesquels sont dirigés de l'orifice d'admission à l'orifice d'évacuation d'une région d'échantillon associée, les particules contenues dans les écoulements (B) partiels d'échantillons diffusent la lumière à mesure que les particules passent à travers le faisceau incident (68). La lumière provenant d'une région d'échantillon (74, 76, 78 ou 80) est dirigée sur un photodétecteur (94, 96, 98 ou 100) lequel émet un signal correspondant à la lumière détectée. La détection des particules se trouvant dans chaque région d'échantillon est fonctionnellement indépendante des autres, mais les informations sont combinées afin de produire un comptage total des particules de l'écoulement global d'échantillons. Selon un autre mode de réalisation, on peut utiliser ledit appareil afin de permettre la détection simultanée de particules de sources séparées du gaz porteur de particules. Par exemple, des zones de salles propres adjacentes peuvent être controlées lors de la canalisation d'écoulements séparés d'échantillons directement dans des orifices d'admission séparés de régions adjacentes d'échantillons.

Ces procédés et appareils fonctionnent sur la base de signaux de données représentatifs de valeurs paramétriques du procédé et génèrent des valeurs de réponses représentatives des valeurs paramétriques du procédé désirées ou requises. Une base de connaissance mémorise la connaissance du procédé industriel sous la forme de règles et un moteur d'inférence applique les règles pour calculer les valeurs de réponses. Une valeur d'horodateur est affectée à chaque signal de donnée, pour représenter le temps de réception de chaque signal. Des éléments d'évaluation de caractères d'actualité, sensibles à des valeurs de plages de caractères d'actualité sélectionnées par un utilisateur et à des signaux d'horodateur attribuent une valeur de temps d'expiration aux signaux de données et ignorent les signaux de données ayant une valeur de temps d'expiration qui se trouve à l'extérieur d'une plage de valeurs de caractères d'actualité correspondantes sélectionnées par l'utilisateur.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for rapidly forming a porous glass preform is provided in which an array of burners is oscillated along a path parallel to the longitudinal axis of the preform. Unlike existing soot deposition techniques, the oscillation amplitude is limited so that each burner deposits soot on only a portion of the preform, e.g., 20% of the preform. By controlling inter-burner variability and the air flow in the burner-array/preform region, preforms having substantially uniform axial properties are obtained notwithstanding the fact that different burners are used to laydown different parts of the preform.
